That is extremely detailed I would say 
But I think it works for him

I also think the vfr maps needs a bit of improvement, I think not too much otherwise it could be heavy and eat FPS. But some POI names, etc. Country borders. This mainly in the earth (start of the game) when you zoom in all goes gray and borders of the country could help avoid you go two countries far 
Like the Orbx map in Central
I also think that it could be nice that the POI in this map shows a small picture of it like in Google so you can identify it clearly and confirm that is what you certainly want to see.
What about a Bing Maps window with traffic overlay?
Itâs understood there is a plethora of 3rd party work arounds, but if they are going to integrate a VFR Map, it needs to have atleast some similarity with primary info on a GPS.
Those of us who just want to jump into our C152 and head off on a random jaunt need that VFR Map ON POINT! xD
XP11 has this sim beat in this area- and it can set the freqs for you.

MSFS2020 does not have a detailed VFR moving map. This is unfortunate and very strange as the simulator would be perfect for flying in VFR mode, given its detailed graphics. This is especially true when youâre flying in VR mode and donât have the option of having a second monitor to see one of the moving maps the community has made.
I think itâs not hard for Asobo to implement a detailed mobile map by taking the informations from Bing Maps and attaching to the existing VFR map ⊠but nothing has been done for now.
It is very frustrating to fly in this mode ⊠Yesterday I flew over the Alps and after a short time I lost my position because I didnât know where I was. In real life when I plan a flight I use an aviation map and i mark the landmarks so that I can recognize them to look at them on the ground, but in MSFS there are no landmarks like churches, towers, chemney and a serious VFR flight is more hard to do that in real life. It would need a detailed GPS or a detailed moving map. But this does not exist and after 4 months from the release of the sim it seems impossible that Asobo has not made this simple change to the VFR map.
Who knows if one day they will satisfy us

yes, we really need regular vfr map as we use in real life to play mfs in VR without second monitor of course.
The just released Orbx Volanta offers a lot of these features, moving map and placenames etc, this provides everything I was looking for.
In VR? 
Hmm, youâre right, this doesnât help for playing in VR. A better in game VFR map would be ideal.

I miss a map selector to switch between different map content from different provider like bing, osm or other sources for a better orientation where i am. So i can see where a city is (bounding box) and there poiâs
maps should be improved. current map is suprisingly low quality compare to msfs2020 level.
we need a map at least DCS worldâs F10 map with navaids, freq etc

The free app âVFRmapâ (msfs2020-go/vfrmap) is very good âŠ
Add, in one corner of the VFR map, the name of the country the airplane is flying over. It is difficult in areas of Europe and some other areas with a number of countries to know when we have flown over a country border. Yes I recognize the city names but coming from North America I am not always sure which country the city or airport is in.
This would be the ideal thing, but MSFS2020 is not 100% accurate with reality. There are missing landmarks in the sim that in the real life are really helpful.
For example, the bell tower of a church or a monument at a roundabout on a specific road.
